About: Japanese Knotweed root, a member of the Buckwheat family, has many benefits, some of which are due to its high level of resveratrol which offers cardio-vascular support, including protection of the blood vessels. Japanese knotweed root may also support brain and immune function, protect the body from endotoxins and address the inflammatory process. Honeybees and other pollinators love to visit the late-blooming flowers of this tall, bamboo-like plant in the early fall.
Recommended Dosage: 30-60 drops OR 1/4-1/2 tsp 3-6 times per day in juice or water. Children under 12 take half the adult dosage. *Please note our recommended dosage may differ from other sources.
Glycerites are prepared from the original herb extract, which is made with the percentage of organic cane alcohol necessary for proper extraction of the vital components in each herb. We then use a process of evaporation to remove the alcohol and then replace this with certified organic vegetable glycerine to preserve the final product.
We recommend storing glycerites in the refrigerator or a cool, dark place to extend the shelf-life, which is approximately 2 years. These sweet and tasty glycerites can be enjoyed by children and adults who may be alcohol sensitive.
